THE Sachin Tendulkar @ SCG

What I remember (in 2024)
Went with Craig's mate.  He was supposed to come as well, but dropped out that morning.
We sat in the Member's Stand.
The Australian crowd continued it's hate against Harbajan Singh.  I think this was the test he had a run in with Andrew Symonds.
After the lunch break, I went to where the dressing rooms were.  Everyone wanted to see the Aussies and no one was near the Indian room.  That's how I got this awesome picture of Sachin Tendulkar.  Also got one of Ishant Sharma.  Big lad.  And boy was he bowling fast that day.
